Quirky guitars for quirky people.
Welcome to our online guitar store of unique electric guitars, selected for originality, condition, and the details that make them different from more common guitar configuration offerings. For those players and collectors seeking an eccentric sound.
Every instrument is photographed, examined, and described in full before it joins the archive.

Accession 002 · The record
The story is part of the instrument.
We strive to provide accurate and complete details and history of our guitars. Each guitar is inspected for finish, electronics, hardware, repairs, and the small signs that explain how it has lived. We arrange independent outside authentication and appraisal services from leading experts, such as Gruhn, Chicago Music Center, Rumbleseat Music, or the expert of your choice. Transparent verification.
Authentication
Construction, components, and period-correct detail are examined before an instrument is offered.
Condition report
Clear high resolution images and straight language, including the details collectors need to know.
Careful sourcing
We select only rare well-kept instruments that offer an alternative to what most people are playing. One offs and limited runs.
